"This Masquerade" lyrics
Are we really happy
With this lonely game, we play
Looking for words to say
Searching, but not finding
Understanding anyway
We're lost, in this masquerade
Both afraid to say, we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside
This lonely game we play
Thoughts of leaving disappear
Every time I see your eyes
No matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
That we carry on this way
We're lost, in a masquerade
Both afraid to say, we're just too far away
From being close together, from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside
This lonely game we play
Thoughts of leaving disappear
Every time I see your eyes
No matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
That we carry on this way
We're lost, in a masquerade
With this lonely game, we play
Looking for words to say
Searching, but not finding
Understanding anyway
We're lost, in this masquerade
Both afraid to say, we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside
This lonely game we play
Thoughts of leaving disappear
Every time I see your eyes
No matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
That we carry on this way
We're lost, in a masquerade
Both afraid to say, we're just too far away
From being close together, from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside
This lonely game we play
Thoughts of leaving disappear
Every time I see your eyes
No matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
That we carry on this way
We're lost, in a masquerade
